Demolition work began early Monday morning! See below for details!
GETTING STARTED! Demolition of our office building began early Monday morning, as a crew from Men & Machines began tearing down the old structure. By mid-day Tuesday about a quarter of the building was left standing. By the time you read this, the building will be gone! As sad as we are to see it go, we’re excited about moving into the new building that will soon take its place! In the meantime, we’re operating out of our Annex office at 2743 Dune Drive…Call or email me anytime!
We’ll move into our brand new office building next year!
THE WETLANDS INSTITUTE and Executive Director Dr. Lenore Tedesco are featured in an article about salt marshes and rising sea levels. The article discusses a number of ways to combat loss of wetlands, including depositing material dredge from navigation channels onto nearby wetlands to increase their elevation–a technique that has been tried behind Avalon & Stone Harbor by the Army Corps of Engineers and the Seven Mile Island Innovation Lab under Dr. Tedesco’s lead. You can read the article here: https://www.njspotlightnews.org/2021/11/nj-wetlands-rising-sea-level-threat-inundation-back-bay-flooding-meadows-under-water/?fbclid=IwAR1d6oIndAiIYkR6oNloYeZqRCksEU1bEDAGaPqU9ngZnyf1aWsIlVpKQNA
THINKING OF SELLING? NOW IS A GREAT TIME! Our market remains busy–purchase demand remains very strong, and interest rates remain low. “Why not wait until the spring?” you might be thinking. Buyers are plentiful and low inventory levels right now mean you’ll have less competition as a seller! Plus, if interest rates rise to combat inflation it could hurt affordability, dampening demand. If you’d like to discuss selling–or just want to know what your house is worth, please call or email me!
TOYS FOR TOTS: Long & Foster will continue our long tradition and conduct a Toys for Tots campaign to provide holiday gifts for children in need.

Help brighten the holiday of a child!
